[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 939008, member: 12508"] OK, now this is really starting to look like an orchestrated effort. We are also killing routes and eliminating or shifting loaders, with the exact same excuse given. Sure...3 people can unload faster than 4. Uh huh. Your route balancing "system" sounds like ours in that it is cast in stone, and doesn't take into account common sense or experience, both of which are conspicuously absent in engineers. It's just stupid, but that won't stop them because some clueless engineer has said it can be done faster their way, and management will trust a piece of paper or a spreadsheet every time. The one variable that is never taken into account is variability itself, which is impossible to calculate accurately in this business. [/QUOTE]
